The only thing is the springs still leaves a lot of rear wheel gap.

I'm also running S-Techs with stock shocks and love it. I'm thinking to cut the spring mount to even out the F & R. Do you recommend?

This will tell you everything you need to know about all the springs...

Notice under S-techs "F: progressive R: Linear"

EDIT: For some reason it wont let me post link...so where there are stars in the link fill in "350z(put a dash here)tech"

lots of people do it. i'm sure you would be fine. it might mess the camber up a little more though. i have always liked cars that are a little higher in the back for some reason

any of you guys with S-tech's running a camber kit? I'm contemplating trying to get an alignment without the kit. -2.0 camber would be perfect

The S-Techs can go that low to 1.1"?. Hmm!
